In a new interview with Glamour, actress Blake Lively has given us a glimpse at the inner workings of Hollywood’s golden couple.

The 29-year-old revealed how she and her husband, Ryan Reynolds, resolve their marital issues, which few and far between by the sounds of things.

“I said, ‘Most of the time,’ because if I say, ‘I’m so in love with him all the time,’ then you get that eye-rolling,” Blake told Glamour. “‘Oh, her life is so great, she’s so perfect.’ So it’s, like, my defense mechanism.”

“There’s never a time when I’m like, “I don’t really love you.” Still, in a sound bite? It can be eye-roll-y. I have to learn to stop being defensive,” she added”

But when conflicts do arise?

“In other relationships, if something came up, I would call my girlfriends or my sister, and say, ‘Hey, this is what he did—what should I do?’" Blake says. "Where with him, we were friends for two years before we were ever dating. And I treat him like my girlfriend. I’m like, ‘Hey, this happened. It upset me. This is how I feel. What do I do?’ And he does the same for me. He treats me like his best buddy.”
